Crawl Test - Taking too long
-
The last crawl test I invoked seems to be in progress for over 24 hours. The one before that completed in a few hours. Wish there was a progress indicator or an option to cancel.
The crawl (from Tool > Crawl Test) should not take this long. Any ideas or suggestions?
Also, the keyword research tool (plus a few others) have been down ever since I signed up. Is this a normal?

Sorry for the long wait, I had to tell Roger that he was a bad boy/girl/thing? We have resolve the crawler issues and your reports should be updating and reporting as it should. I am very sorry that Roger caused some concerns, it said it won't do it next time.
Thank you very much for your patience

Thanks Peter for the response. Keyword tool start to work but Crawl Test is still pending, it has been over 3 days. I need it to be stopped/cancelled it so I can re-run it. Not being able to crawl and check the changes that were made on the site brings me to a stopping point.
Looking through some of the other Q/A, one of the suggestions was to stop the crawl was to stop it via robots.txt, which didn't worked. I don't think it is even doing anything but stuck in the "in progress" state.

Hey MomoMasta,
Thanks for reaching out to us! I'm sorry for the inordinate amount of time that it took for the crawl to complete (which it should be at the moment). I will have made a note on the issue so our team can take a look at it. I like that feature request (to cancel), you should definitely suggest it in features request forum at :https://seomoz.zendesk.com/forums/293194-seomoz-pro-feature-requests.
I am very sorry for the keyword feature being down due to the recent Google search result change. Our company has learned a lot from this last outage and will have contingency plans in next time Google releases another update. I want to thank you for your patience and hope you will continue being our friend/customer http://screencast.com/t/XaxBDAakziS

Crawl Diagnostics - 350 Critical errors? But I used rel-canonical links
Hello Mozzers, We launched a new website on Monday and had our first MOZ crawl on 01/07/15 which came back with 350+ critical errors. The majority of these were for duplicate content. We had a situation like this for each gym class: GLOBAL YOGA CLASS (canonical link / master record) YOGA CLASS BROMLEY YOGA CLASS OXFORD YOGA CLASS GLASGOW etc All of these local Yoga pages had the canonical link deployed. So why is this regarded as an error by MOZ? Should I have added robots NO INDEX instead? Would think help? Very scared our rankings are gonna get effected 😞 Ben

Can I prevent some pages from being crawled from SEOMoz spider and still not affect Google Spider?
Well, basically that's the question 😄 Can I prevent some pages from being crawled from SEOMoz spider and still not affect Google Spider? This is, I have more than 10.000 pages on the website, and I am not interested in having reports for many of them, but I still wanna get SEO visits on them, so I want Google to crawl it easily... Thanks!

Crawling One Page
I set up a profile for a site with many pages, opting for setting up as a root directory. When SEOMoz crawled, they only found one page. Any ideas for why this would be? Thanks!

Why does my crawl report show just one page result?
I just ran a crawl report on my site: http://dozoco.com The result report shows results for just one page - the home page, but no other pages. The report doesn't indicate any errors or "do not follows" so I'm unclear on the issue, although I suspect user error - mine.
